My life and LIFE

I love life. My family life and my Discovery Life. Have you seen it? It is awesome. Check it out on the discovery channel. I have already figured out that my kids strongly resemble baby orangutans and teeny tiny waterfall frogs. Seriously I think it looks like Gracie! When I am not watching Life on the Discovery channel I am watching my life unfold before my eyes.
A glimpse into my life this week.
Emily has been mothering Eliza this week. They found matching pajamas and headbands and Emily gave Eliza homework to do while she did hers. Last week we swam everyday of the week. At the end of the week I looked at Eliza and Emily's hair and it had turned green! I tried washing it in special shampoo and nothing worked. Aunt Rachel came to visit and gave everyone a haircut on my front porch. Both girls had their long curly hair cut off. Perhaps that is what brought them together this week.

They even wanted to sleep together. Sleeping children are one of my favorite parts of life!

Lindsey decided it is high time that Gracie learns to crawl. She demonstrated while Gracie watched patiently, very patiently.




We went to the park tonight where we are holding the March for Babies to map out the walking route. We took a minute to preview their Easter clothes. I can't believe how much my life has changed over the last year. With the Easter holiday fast approaching I am reliving last year at this time every day. Easter weekend is when everything went down with Gracie. One thing I do know is that I have a good life. I feel so privileged to help bring the March for Babies here to St. George. If I can help one other life that is all I need. Thanks for your support. Please spread the word so we can reach our goal. If you come to the walk on Saturday I will give you Blue Bunny ice cream and you can listen to an awesome live band. Plus you get to hang out with me and my orangutan/waterfall frog babies. I love LIFE!

Newspaper article

Check out our newspaper article in the Spectrum. Wow.
I went to Maverik this morning and bought the paper so I could read it. I left it on the kitchen table and about 1/2 hour later Tyler saw it and started yelling that Gracie was in the paper! He was so excited. They all hugged and kissed Gracie and told her that she is famous!

big boys don't cry, unless you live with all sisters!

I was browsing through my photos tonight and found this priceless gem. Oh Tyler, you will be a good man being raised in between all these sisters. One day you will appreciate them!

We are coming off a week of spring break, and are exhausted from traveling to Henderson (not Las vegas!) and to Bloomington. Bloomington? What's that you say? Isn't that a meer 15 minute drive on I-15 from your house? To that I say, yes, yes, it is! We had the best vacation at a condo with a heated pool! Thanks to my awesome Aunt and Uncle! The cherry on top was a visit by the president of the Psychotic Mothers Society, Penelope Gertrude (aka Becky B.) for the first annual conference on psychotic mothering and how we LOVE it! A huge thanks to our husbands who put the kids to bed themselves for two nights! You are both the best!

p.s.
The Walk for babies is in less than two weeks! We can't wait!
